POLSIS Alumni event - 'Dinner with a Dozen'

Posted on Tuesday 16th February 2010

Polsis Alumni, staff and current students met for dinner in February at the University to discuss the transition from student life to work, as part of an initiative from the Alumni Office to draw on the experience of Birmingham Alumni for the benefit of current students.

The idea, imported from America, is to draw on the Alumni community for more than simply fund raising and to employ their experience in a variety of ways to help current students in their transition towards the world of work. One Polsis Alumni, Mark Titterington who is now Director of European Public Affairs for the Agribusiness Syngenta, flew in from Brussels especially for the event. Other similar events may be planned in the future
